Sit down interview with Beyonce Knowles. Including soundbites:\u003cbr/\u003e\"I feel like this is like a second home; I've been coming here with Destiny's Child since I was 16 or 15 years old, and it's almost been 10 years, so of course I had to come, I wanted everyone to see that this was important for me and it was actually never an issue, that was some crazy rumours. Who knows who started, I was always going to come, and I'm happy to be here and I'm happy to see people to see that it's important.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"I had so many songs and so many concepts bottled up inside being away from performing and singing for 6 months, that while I was on my vacation I told everyone, please let me be, don't ask me to do anything, don't call me, let me go away and relax and get my mind back, and kind of come back to my body because I've been in Deena's body, the character for so long; and while I was there I couldn't relax. So I said, well, I'm coming back to New York, I'm going to be down street from Sony Studios, I might as well just sneak over there and just play.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"So we did three songs a day and I didn't want to go home, every morning I was like, oh god, I want to get back in the studio, I just wanted to be in the studio, it felt so good; and I did the record in a little over 2 weeks.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"Deena felt like she was trapped, and she was married and she was in this relationship for so long, and it was all the things I wanted to say while I was doing the movie, all the things the character to say, so I'm speaking for every woman who's been in a relationship for a long time and it's supposed to empower women to have that extra boost to say all the things that they feel in their hearts. So it was really a strong album and it makes women feel like they're powerful and it kind of makes you want to get your power back.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"I feel like it's really sexy and beautiful to see a strong woman and that's kind of what this is about. But it's not an autobiography, it's not about me.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"The best birthday gift is for my album to be received really well, and I think I'm just going to have like an intimate dinner with my friends and hopefully some good food. I'm going to have a party after an award show in New York on the 31st, but it's going to be like a big party with a lot of people so I won't be able to relax, so I'll do it on my actual birthday just at home, private intimate dinner.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"It is really interesting how the movie's inspire the music and the music inspires the movie; when ever I do an album and I do all the touring and then I'm like, ok, I want to do something else, and I love the stability of the movie's and I love just doing something that I'm still learning, I'm new at. It's almost like starting over which is really exciting. And then when I do that, the movie, I'm like, oh I've got to get back in the studio and perform every night. So it keeps my life interesting and that's my goal, to keep growing and keep learning and becoming more of an artist. I'm happy I've been given the opportunities to do both.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"I make sure I have my vacations, I make sure, even though I didn't this time, but I try to have at least a couple weeks a year twice a year, summer and winter. And I'm taking October off, the whole month, and I make sure every couple weeks I see my nephew, I see my friends, I have certain weekends off and I'm just really in control of my schedule, which it took me a while to learn to say no, which is something that a lot of people have a hard time saying. Because I like to take care of everyone and I like everyone to be happy, so, it's difficult, but I've learned that I have to be a little bit selfish and take care of myself because I have time. I want to be here at least, for singing, at least another 15 years.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"He loves the record, he knows even with Destiny's Child Writing On The Wall, even with Destiny's Child, we were women who stood up for women, and the same thing; 'Independent Woman' and 'Survivor' and all those records I feel like is really sexy and beautiful to see a strong woman and that's kind of what this is about. But it's not an autobiography, it's not about me.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"I'm young, I'm 24, I'll be 25 when this album comes out, but I have time, who knows when it will happen, it could happen in a year, could happen in 5 years, but I'm in no rush, and I do think family is important. I grew up with both my parents and with my sister and with my cousins and Kelly and all the girls and there was always a lot of love in my house; so I want the same thing.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"It's a goal to have a Tony, and Oscar and a Grammy. But I have a long way to go and I have a lot of time for that. I don't plan on doing Broadway until I'm older with kids and I feel like that would be a great job for me when I'm married and I want to tuck my kids into bed and drop them off to school and go do my show for 2 hours and then go back home every day; I feel like that's really stable, but  have time for that. So hopefully I'll win a Tony but that's a long time from now. And an Oscar, I feel like I've only really acted one time, so Dreamgirls is the first time I've acted, even though I've done movies, but I just had fun on the other movies. This time I really studied; so I have a long way to go. So one day.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"My mum is my stylist, she pulls all my clothes with Tai Hunter, my other stylist and it's great working with her. For one she's my best friend, I admire her, and if I could be like anyone it would be like her, because she's just such a strong smart beautiful woman.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"I think my style is eclectic, I like so many different things, it depends on what the treatment is or where I'm going, I love everything from tailored suits to crisp white shirts to jeans to beautiful gowns to really sexy shirts, and all different type things; I just love fashion and I love being able to do photo shoots and videos and play dress-up and go home in my jeans, you know do different styles.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\"I love to dance on stage and in videos, I think people will be surprised top see me dancing in real life, I'm really a lot more reserved and kind of shy, I kind of do the 2-step that I saw my parents do, I can't bust into choreography in intimate settings.\"\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton
